are you confused with taking the stock intake out and getting out the mass air sensor? or have you already done that and looking for help on how to install it?

 

i think ill be alright getting it out its more of im not as comfortable with installing it.

 

also i just read some thing about needing a tune after the air intake is upgraded is this needed at this time cause i was planing on saveing up for a tuner any way but not right away.

 

Only the 05+ V6's need a tune after putting in a CAI. Our cars are less controlled by electronics than those.

 

yep, our cars are perfectly fine with out any tune from doing an intake & exhaust.

 

k good cause i wasnt ready for the tunner yet. haha (money wise)
so i just need to get that cai in asap cause knowing me if i dont do it soon it will just sit there for ever, im just kinda nervous about tareing the old one out its me first performance mod so idk.

 

don't even sweat it. Once you start pulling stuff out and putting the new one in you will be like "dang i was worried for nothing".

 

ok i hope so

 

Modding your car is fun man, enjoy yourself.

You'll be pretty happy when you turn your car on for the first time after putting the CAI in and noticing some subtle changes in sound, maybe even throttle response (assuming you still have the air-silencer on the stock intake)

um i hear talk about people takeing out the air silencer. is this something to consider or not. or i might be crazy

 

if you leave the stock intake in, yes- take it out. But when you get a CAI or SRI, you end up removing it anyway. It's basically a funnel-shaped piece that leads from the intake housing where the filter is to the fender well.

 

oh so thats part of me puttin in a cai. witch i still have to do.

 

k i just finnished putting in the cai and i must say that it sounds much better. i was a little tricker then it was suposed to be. but i cant really explain y. i could not figure out the aluminum stud things so i just got creative and figured something out with out them. so it still sits level and works but when i start the car i think i can hear it bounce like once. so idk mabe ill figure it out.

also the crank case vent hose just sits in that hole right cause i thought it should be tighter but i drove it for a wile and nothig bed happened

so yeah im very happy. i guess exaust is next.
